“Evelyn is the BEST pet sitter we've used on Rover! She is very communicative and organized. You could tell from the all the pictures she sent that our pup loved spending time with her! She went above and beyond to clean up before she left. I'm very appreciative of how well she took care of our sweet, old girl! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and currently have a dachshund, and a cat! I’ve cared for puppies, energetic dogs, and senior dogs who needed extra hands-on care. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. Your pet will be treated like family with me! I am a full-time college student at a community college. I have recently finished taking all my prerequisites and trying to make some extra money while waiting to apply to my college programs. I have two Australian Shepherds, a dachshund, and a cat at home. I make sure all of my pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’m also very attentive to their individual personalities and needs. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to learn their routine and personality. I want them to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their family is away
“We have never left our dog Tucker with anyone before and I am so happy the first time we did it was with Holli and Susan. They were wonderful with him, very communicative, and left the house clean! Would absolutely book with them again.”
“Sammy was great! She came by to meet Leo prior to our vacation and asked all sorts of questions which really showed me she was paying attention to all of the details and that doing a good job was important to her. Sammy sent me a few messages while we were gone with updates about Leo and let me know when she arrived and left. I hope to use her services again this summer!”
About: I have a lot of experience working with different types of dogs and puppies. I have a big heart for any kind of animal. I can’t wait to meet some wonderful dogs! I only work roughly 20 hours a week so I am available often to let out dogs and play with them. Your dogs will be a priority for me. I always watch my dogs closely when they are outside to make sure they stay in their yard. I always put the dogs safety as a high priority to make sure they always return safe & sound.
About: Hello! I’ve been dog sitting for 6 years now. I also trained my dog and assisted with others for 9 years through Tipton Co 4-h. I love to watch dogs play and take them to the park if they’re allowed. They bring joy to my heart. I work 20-30 hours a week, normally 4-6 hour shifts. I’m never gone for too long, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fuzzy ones! I do pet care in the clients home. I’m willing to walk your pets each day, and I love to play with all animals. I am able to brush pets if needed as well as brush teeth and syringe feed.
“Very happy we went with Abby! Sent a lot of pictures, really took care of our dogs and cat as well as things like bringing in packages! Highly responsive, considerate and easy to communicate with - 5/5!”
“Kendra was great - not only did she respond quickly whenever I reached out, but she followed all of my requests and needs perfectly (even the ones that were a little "extra" for the sake of my dog, Annie. Ultimately, I felt comfortable the entirety of the time she was house-sitting and I came home to a happy and healthy pup!”
About: I have a GSD husky myself so I know how to deal with any pets with alot of energy. So whether it's multiple animals or one I'm your guy! Weekends are pretty open and I work 8-5 during the week but I am able to drop by if during that time period on weekdays during my break. I will feed and play with your dogs until they won't play anymore. I will feed them and make sure they feel comfortable with me while I'm with them
About: I have around 15 years of experience caring for dogs. I grew up with family dogs and helped with daily care, training, walks, bathing, feeding/medications for senior dogs and lots of love. I’ve also dog-sat for friends and family and I’m very comfortable with all personalities and energy levels! I have a flexible work schedule and a couple of days off each week, which means I have plenty of time to take care of my pets. On workdays, I’m usually gone for 4–6 hours at most, and I work close enough to home that I can easily stop in for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and some extra attention. Your pet’s safety is my #1 priority. I follow all feeding and walking instructions (& anything else provided) keep them on-leash unless otherwise approved, and never put them in overwhelming situations. I take things at their pace, offer lots of reassurance, and make sure they feel loved and safe the entire time🛡️🤍
“Kyan did such a good job taking care of our dog and cats while we were out of town. They were very respectful of the house, and made sure to let us know that Wynnie was itching a lot too. Definitely helped us identify that there needed to be a change in her shampoo to help with some dry skin. We will definitely use Kyan again.”
About: I am very skilled with animals ! I’ve grown up with showing and raising different kinds of animals my whole life ! It would be a pleasure to help care for yours ! I’m currently a server at a restaurant , I work a couple night shifts weekly ! During the day I am open and free ! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with our own fenced in yard ! I also have a dog which is a golden retriever and she loves other dogs !
“Heather watched my 2 dogs in our home for several days while I was out of town. She was absolutely amazing with them!! They’re both very different personalities and she cared for them both well, and kept me updated along the way. She responds quickly and reached out with any questions which made me feel reassured they were taken care of. Would absolutely book with her again and recommend her for anyone!”
“Hannah was very flexible, meet n greet, and is kind, confident, and understanding. She clearly has experience with loud and large dogs as well. I would trust her to watch the dogs again!”
“Mary always does so great with our girls! They love her and I always feel so comfortable and at ease when we leave on vacation and they are with her. She is great as always!!”
About: Hi, I’m Elizabeth, and I’m a dedicated dog lover with over seven years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking! Growing up with dogs, I’ve always had a deep love and understanding of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for your furry family members while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. As a dog parent myself, I understand the value of personalized, attentive care—giving your pup the love, exercise, and attention they deserve rather than a kennel stay. I work flexible hours doing marketing/promotional jobs a few days a week, but I am home most of the time, so your pup will have plenty of companionship and care. I am available mornings and evenings daily and around lunch time some days. Letting me know your pets normal routine will help me make sure I am available during those times. I have a friendly older English bulldog who loves playing with new dog friends. He doesn’t always come with me and doesn’t have to if I have any in home stays where the animals don’t like other dogs in the home.
“On top of an awesome temperament, Michaela is also a great communicator. Our furry child is super anxious, very reactive and gives no indicators of when he’s getting fed up (until you find out that he’s fed up). In the past, he usually doesn’t open up to sitters; however, Michaela was able to get him to let her pet him (which never happens)! To complicate our booking, our poor little guy had his first ever seizure two days before the booking was to begin. It was very hard to leave him, especially since Michaela was new to us. She was confident in her capabilities to care for him still, and she managed his care like a champ.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,394 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bakers Corner. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bakers Corner walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bakers Corner maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bakers Corner choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
